Prototype #1
To test the concept we built the first prototype out of steel-reinforced PVC. We used a rear ramp which was long and difficult to board, but based on people's reactions, we knew we were onto something!
Prototype #2
It was around this time we met Ike Reynolds, who shared our passion for the concept. Ike took the tilting floor idea to a new level when he built this prototype.
Prototype #3
We decided to beef up the frame from 3/4" to 1". We also shortened the front end redesigned the tilting floor. We also went with a bigger battery for reliability and range.
